Located on Foordmore Rd. in Napanoch, the trailhead has limited parking but is the starting point for the Lower Mine Hole Trail, which winds its way high up on the Shawangunk Ridge before merging into the Long Path Upper Mine Hole Trail and eventually joining The Smiley Carriageway.
This will then give you access to the trails at Sam’s Point. The first part of the trail runs parallel with the Mine Hole Brook, which you will cross when following the white blaze trail markers.
Located in an adjacent gully on your left, when heading up, is another brook; this is unnamed and does not appear on any maps. When finding it, one can follow it upstream to a rugged horseshoe waterfall and, further upstream, to more spectacular slab-rock cascades.
Where to cross back over the Mine Hole Brook to get into the neighboring gully can be tricky to spot, but you can download a route map below that should give you some clues. Also on this map, you will see the Point Lookout Trail, which will take you high up onto the ridge to Point Lookout, where spectacular views of the distant ridge and Rondout Valley can be found.
